00:00:16,219 --> 00:00:18,250
Hello tankers!

2
00:00:18,250 --> 00:00:25,600
In today’s episode we’ll be telling you
how to earn some crystals with the Star Series finals.

3
00:00:25,600 --> 00:00:31,980
We’ll also be giving you some advice on
how to micro-upgrade your tank properly,

4
00:00:31,980 --> 00:00:35,580
and how to make a good contest video.

5
00:00:35,580 --> 00:00:36,520
Let’s start!

6
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:42,460
The Mister TO contest is in full swing!

7
00:00:42,460 --> 00:00:49,939
We’ve received A LOT of entries, but very
few of them meet all the requirements.

8
00:00:49,939 --> 00:00:53,679
Guys, you have more than enough time.

9
00:00:53,680 --> 00:00:58,160
Make sure you read all of the contest rules
properly once again.

10
00:00:58,170 --> 00:01:01,910
Don’t be lazy, an iPad is at stake!

11
00:01:02,620 --> 00:01:08,290
Now, some great news for all the female tankers
out there.

12
00:01:08,290 --> 00:01:11,189
Miss TO has just kicked off.

13
00:01:11,189 --> 00:01:17,369
To take part, you need to shoot a 30 second
video on the given theme,

14
00:01:17,369 --> 00:01:19,649
which is “Gold Box”.

15
00:01:19,650 --> 00:01:26,950
The prizes are crystals, T-shirts, a dream
tank and the latest model of iPad mini.

16
00:01:26,950 --> 00:01:34,520
Entries are accepted till August 11,
so take your time ladies, and make sure you

17
00:01:34,530 --> 00:01:37,430
send us something truly special.

18
00:01:37,430 --> 00:01:44,950
And to help you out, our German community
manager Mariya has prepared a guide on how

19
00:01:44,950 --> 00:01:48,080
to properly make a contest video.

20
00:01:48,090 --> 00:01:49,390
Let’s check it out!

21
00:01:49,820 --> 00:01:50,860
Hey Tankers!

22
00:01:50,860 --> 00:01:56,740
As you may know, each year we hold two contests:
Mister Tanki Online and Miss Tanki Online.

23
00:01:56,740 --> 00:02:00,170
Traditionally these contests are all about
video.

24
00:02:00,170 --> 00:02:05,090
Today I ll give you some tips on how to create
a good video that will increase your chances

25
00:02:05,090 --> 00:02:06,860
of winning the top price.

26
00:02:06,860 --> 00:02:08,680
So, let s get going!

27
00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:13,860
Let s start with the obvious: do not rush
to submit the video as soon as possible.

28
00:02:13,870 --> 00:02:16,140
You have enough time to do a good job.

29
00:02:16,140 --> 00:02:20,970
Think about the idea of the clip. Make sure
it is related to the contest theme.

30
00:02:20,970 --> 00:02:23,269
Then start working on the video.

31
00:02:23,269 --> 00:02:25,680
The quality of the video is very important.

32
00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:31,349
But don’t worry. We understand most players
are not video editing gurus.

33
00:02:31,349 --> 00:02:36,780
You don t need professional equipment — a
regular mobile phone can still give you a good

34
00:02:36,780 --> 00:02:37,840
quality video.

35
00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:40,380
That s a lot better, right?

36
00:02:40,380 --> 00:02:42,790
Also, make sure we can hear you properly.

37
00:02:42,790 --> 00:02:47,220
Sound should be high-quality, and your speech
should be clear and enthusiastic.

38
00:02:47,220 --> 00:02:49,380
Do not be afraid to experiment.

39
00:02:49,380 --> 00:02:55,540
We appreciate originality and novelty of ideas,
but it s also important not to overdo it.

40
00:02:55,540 --> 00:03:00,550
Think about what you’re best at, but also
keep in mind the theme of the contest!

41
00:03:00,550 --> 00:03:04,380
And of course, an important part of video
creation is editing.

42
00:03:04,380 --> 00:03:08,270
So here’s one more tip: do not be lazy!

43
00:03:08,270 --> 00:03:13,930
Refer to good old YouTube to find some video
editing guides, and start creating!

44
00:03:13,930 --> 00:03:19,330
One last thing: do not forget that all your
ideas and quality should be fit...

45
00:03:19,330 --> 00:03:20,530
in 30 seconds.

46
00:03:20,530 --> 00:03:21,430
Good luck guys!

47
00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:30,600
Tankers, Star Series finals kick off on the
27th of July.

48
00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:37,180
6 days, 6 staggering battles and… an awesome
chance to earn some crystals.

49
00:03:37,180 --> 00:03:39,400
Here’s what you can expect:

50
00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:46,550
4 free paints, each representing a different
Star Series finalist, will appear in the game

51
00:03:46,550 --> 00:03:48,870
on July 27.

52
00:03:48,870 --> 00:03:54,099
Pick one of them to become an official fan
of that finalist.

53
00:03:54,100 --> 00:04:00,879
If your team is crowned champion, you get
between 3 and 10 thousand crystals, depending

54
00:04:00,879 --> 00:04:02,050
on your rank.

55
00:04:02,050 --> 00:04:04,190
But, there’s more!

56
00:04:04,190 --> 00:04:11,980
If the total number of viewers for all 6 streams
together will reach 20 000, we’ll get double

57
00:04:11,980 --> 00:04:15,739
battle funds on Sunday, August 2.

58
00:04:15,739 --> 00:04:24,300
If we reach 30 000 — funds will be tripled,
and so on, up to 50 000 viewers and 5 times

59
00:04:24,300 --> 00:04:26,420
the funds on Sunday!

60
00:04:26,420 --> 00:04:33,260
Can you even imagine a day with 5 times the
crystals for every completed battle? Well,

61
00:04:33,270 --> 00:04:36,660
let’s make sure it becomes a reality!

62
00:04:36,660 --> 00:04:44,300
So, tune in to our esports channel to watch
the best teams in Tanki battle it out to determine

63
00:04:44,300 --> 00:04:46,560
who of them is the best.

64
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:51,600
The show starts at 5 pm UTC on July 27.

65
00:04:54,420 --> 00:04:57,260
Time to learn something new!

66
00:04:57,270 --> 00:05:03,710
Today’s guest of Pro s Advice is an ex-member
of the legendary Fathers clan, as well as

67
00:05:03,710 --> 00:05:10,290
ex-captain of Legion and our Russian eSports
commentator — Denis Kriukov.

68
00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:12,620
Hey guys!

69
00:05:12,630 --> 00:05:20,260
Today we’ll learn how to properly micro-upgrade
your tank and save some crystals in the process.

70
00:05:20,260 --> 00:05:22,700
Let’s start with paints.

71
00:05:22,710 --> 00:05:27,830
The point here is that you can actually save
crystals on micro upgrades.

72
00:05:27,830 --> 00:05:33,150
Let’s say you need the Digital paint, but
your rank is too low.

73
00:05:33,150 --> 00:05:40,330
You could buy the Tundra paint and pay for
2 Railgun protection steps and 3 Smoky ones.

74
00:05:40,330 --> 00:05:47,960
For 48 000 crystals, you’ll have a paint
that is almost equal to Digital, but 5 ranks earlier.

75
00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:54,870
Sure, you won’t have the 10% against Shaft.
But you’ll have an extra 30 000 crystals

76
00:05:54,870 --> 00:05:57,000
to spend on supplies.

77
00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:59,850
Now, about hulls.

78
00:05:59,850 --> 00:06:03,130
What to upgrade? Most would say PROTECTION.

79
00:06:03,130 --> 00:06:07,320
But let’s not forget about other parameters.

80
00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:14,400
Turning Speed and Maximum Speed are crucial
for delivering flags and fast counter-attacks.

81
00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:22,580
A Wasp with these stats maxed out is an extremely
difficult target for enemy Ricochets and Twins.

82
00:06:22,580 --> 00:06:27,780
Even Shafts can find it tricky to hit this
crazy little tank.

83
00:06:27,780 --> 00:06:34,310
And if you put a Freeze on such Wasp, you’ll
be running circles around any enemy, suffering

84
00:06:34,310 --> 00:06:37,120
almost no return damage.

85
00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:43,699
Another important hull parameter is Weight.
It will help you in pushing other tanks.

86
00:06:43,699 --> 00:06:49,400
Let’s say you’re charging the opponents’
base, but there’s an enemy tank standing

87
00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:50,960
right on the flag.

88
00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:56,889
Your need to push it ASAP, take the flag and
escape alive.

89
00:06:56,889 --> 00:07:04,109
In such cases, the upgraded Weight can play
a crucial role and let your team win the round.

90
00:07:04,109 --> 00:07:07,700
And finally, let’s talk about turrets.

91
00:07:07,710 --> 00:07:15,680
Many tankers simply upgrade Damage and Reload
Speed, ignoring other parameters, which is

92
00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:22,430
not always a right thing to do because other
characteristics might come in handy as well.

93
00:07:22,430 --> 00:07:30,090
For instance, by upgrading the range of Isida
M3, you get an extra 3 meters of range,

94
00:07:30,090 --> 00:07:32,160
which makes the difference.

95
00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:38,419
On maps such as Noise this will let you heal
your teammates from safe a distance or help

96
00:07:38,419 --> 00:07:41,080
them out by damaging the enemy.

97
00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:46,840
That’s it, this was Denya, upgrade your
tank properly. Good luck!

98
00:07:49,490 --> 00:07:50,930
Tankers!

99
00:07:50,930 --> 00:07:57,550
Largely thanks to your opinion and feedback,
Tanki has been getting some awesome updates,

100
00:07:57,550 --> 00:08:00,229
like Daily Missions and new turrets.

101
00:08:00,229 --> 00:08:03,210
Today we need your help once again.

102
00:08:03,210 --> 00:08:11,090
Our team is running some very important research,
so we need your honest feedback on Tanki Online.

103
00:08:11,090 --> 00:08:18,520

104
00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:19,820
is in the description.

105
00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:36,519
You’ve been bombarding us with cool action
videos since last Friday, but as always, we

106

Check it out!

108
00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:11,520
That’s it tankers, time to wrap this episode
and prepare the next one.

109
00:09:11,529 --> 00:09:18,319
